Our History
Origin
"La coulée sucrée" was born with the "Douceurs du Mont Vinoy", in Chénéville. Raymond and Judith, these two passionate souls, were the producers of the honey chosen by the Brasseurs de Montebello who made "The Queen of Mont Vinoy" a beer with a warm and loving taste. The legend does not say, however, whether it is Judith or the bee who was really "The Queen of Mount Vinoy".
